After talking to Vader about his idea for the comic ( which I wouldn't have been able to be part of, not being able to draw and stuff), I was struck with the idea that it should be possible to do the same thing with the fandom's fan fiction writers. I have checked with Vader and he's okay with me borrowing his idea for my own medium. The two projects - novelisation and graphic novel - would complement each other (I hope).
I have floated the idea with the fanfic community on tumblr and so far I have about 30 writers interested in taking part. Once I know exactly how many people want to be involved in the project, I can split the game's narrative into that many sections and allocate them to people. The overall timeline for the project is a year and a two months. We hope to "publish" the finished novelisation to coincide with the release of the remake.
Anybody who wants to be involved is most welcome. There's no "talent bar" anybody has to pass. The project's spirit is inclusiveness and its purpose is showcase the various styles and voices of our fandom's writers.
I made a google doc to explain the project. People who want to sign up can do so at the bottom of the google doc.
I don't think we can call this a tls project, though; most of my contact with fellow fanfictioneers takes place at tumblr. It isn't even really "my" project. I'm just the coordinator.
